Specialty inks for demanding applications

When a standard ink is not enough, our laboratory formulates the solution: colour change with temperature, invisible marks, high opacity or direct marking on food.

Thermochromic inks

They change colour when a set temperature is reached, showing at a glance that a product has gone through a thermal process or that the cold chain has been broken.

  • Sterilisation and autoclave
  • Cold chain monitoring
  • Pasteurisation and cooking

Invisible UV inks

Invisible to the naked eye, with red fluorescence under ultraviolet light. They add a security code without altering the packaging design.

  • Anti-counterfeiting
  • Covert traceability
  • Distribution control

Micro-pigmented inks

High-opacity white and yellow for high-contrast marking on dark surfaces: black plastics, cables, painted metal or tinted glass.

  • Cables and tubes
  • Automotive
  • Dark packaging
